Logging into Business Directory
When you start Business Directory, you need to know the Business Directory server instance to which you want to connect.
To log into Business Directory
1. Type the following URL in your browser:
http://<hostname>:9500/directory
The <hostname> is a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) or specific IP address for your Business Directory instance. If there are published TDV databases on the host, they are immediately registered as a site. Sites added automatically will need to be introspected using the instructions in
Site Metadata.
2. Enter your user credentials and information for the Business Directory server to which you are connecting. For example:
Field | Example Value | Notes |
Domain | finswest | Use the Business Directory site name in this field if you, the user logging in, belong to the composite domain as defined for that TDV site. You have to use the site name, because there can be one or more composite domain registered within Business Directory depending on how many sites are registered for use. If each site has a composite domain and composite is specified as the domain name, it is unclear which site to use to authenticate the user. To properly authenticate the user, TDV needs the site information, TDV assumes composite for the domain, and then authenticates the user based on username and password. |
